Are you bringing back the 'Bubble Screen'?
Nah. The BSoD (bubble screen of death) was an attempt to recreate a power running game without a power runner.Are you bringing back the 'Bubble Screen'?If I could bring anything back, it'd be the pro set.

Sucking up already! lol ....... good for him!
I'm still not sure why the Steelers spent a 4th round pick on a 3rd string guy. While some may say what is Conner and Samuels go down. I say you can say the same for any position. RB is the easiest position on offense to replace, besides kicker.
Snell is too slow to feature as an every down back, and tend to doubt will add much as a special teams kick coverage person. He could be a short yardage runner, but Conner's already excellent at that.
Not a fan of this pick at all.
They’re going to slim him down a bit...as they did with Bell.
Hopefully his speed (or is it suddenness and glide) improves.

Does he have much extra weight to lose? Dude already looks pretty diesel
They used to run that wrap around draw with Bell all the time and it was a TERRIBLE play. I think I can count on one hand how many times it got more than 3 yards...

You all better learn what Benny Snell football is....
Bell was the most overrated RB in maybe the entire history of Steelers Football, or maybe even the game itself. Yall gonna find out why this year
Bell is a very good player, but the RB's position is very replaceable in the NFL.The steelers were lucky that Bell refused the steelers big offer in 2018 because he wanted crazy money.And no, Bell is not Marshall Faulk or a player like that and we have not missed the playoffs in 2018 because of Conner!

I hated it so much
I want the steelers to be more balanced in first down and 10, since 64% of pass attempts in the first half on this down is way too much, but running on second down and 8 yards or longer is a terrible idea because it's almost certain that we'll be in 3rd down and long after and one of the reasons why I will never miss Todd Haley.
I hope it's something very special

He reminds me of Hines Ward a bit.

We will discover what his athletic ceiling is shortly, but I loooove his relentless, physical running. If he can show that he has good hands, a decent feel for the passing game, and shows a little wiggle to make people miss with a quick burst.....he will be an excellent pro and a fan favorite.
If you like effort...he's your guy.
In the game against the Chargers, the steelers led by 8 points at the beginning of the 4th quarter, they attempts 14 pass vs 2 run!
This is not the only game .... against the Bengals in October, the steelers led by 3 points at the beginning of the 4th quarter, and they attempts 15 pass against only 1 run....yes 1 run with the lead for almost the entire 4th quarter!
They have almost lost this game .... The steelers give up the run way too early too often.
My experience tells me there's no such thing as "too slow" when it comes to running backs.

I'm sure he's just as fast as fat boy CJ Anderson who did pretty well last year
For the run-pass ratio...
so am I reading this correctly that the Steelers passed the football more than running and it was adjusted for expectations of running later in the game? So my eyes didn't deceive me that Ben's caddy was the head of one of the more imbalanced offenses in the NFL.

8 is for closers.
7 gets you a set of steak knives.
The fact that the steelers talked about a lot of things in OTA, but not for running the football more means surely that the steelers are going to be pass happy again in 2019.
One thing I do agree with Fitchner and Ben is that running the ball on the second down and 10 is a wasted play, especially when you need another score .... The steelers had the least running play in this down and distance
But the steelers were still too much pass happy in first down and 10.
Array title="Born2Steel has a reputation beyond repute">
So what is this graph telling me? That the Steelers passed 9% more than what was expected? Well that extra 9% wasn't enough to keep AB happy so what now?
I honestly think that when Conner goes out with his injury this season, Snell moves right in and we don't miss a beat. Samuels will be there just in case too but we do have a more solid RB room this season.

One of the biggest ironies in football is when you give a QB the choice to pass or run he will nearly always choose pass, while the OL nearly always wants to run the ball. And it is nothing based off of scheme, down and distance, or efficiency. They ALL want to prove that THEY can win at this game.
6 gets you to a pink slip.
Honestly, I didn't think it got posted as my computer kept freezing when I posted it. Hopefully this just goes thru 1 time.
These leads are weak! I need the Glengarry list.
